Hi Janna, Interesting thoughts indeed. In my work I have seen both general and application/project-ish specific personas used. Of the two, the application specific personas were more useful. That being said, I was in project/delivery/tactical mode and trying to get something through the door.
I think even when personas are used to create overarching strategies and concepts they need to have a range in order to get to the point of the problem or gap you are trying to solve. I think that going to general, one can end up not thinking about alot of the gaps that may go along with the strategy. ~ Lis http://www.elisabethhubert.com . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
